Today was our weekly meeting with all the WASH partners at Chuchepati Camp. We had many things to discussed, especially the topic of water. Specially speaking about drinking water vs. hand-washing water.
Thanks to Water Missions International for making such great brochures to hand out to people! There are tons of information in this little brochure about safe drinking water and unsafe water usage. It also shows some good hygiene practices, such as the 6 steps of proper hand washing. There is also a huge section on what to do when having water diarrhea and when to seek medical attention. Everything is translated into Nepali language for easier understanding! Hope this goes to great use!
We also had time to stop by Madhyapur Hospital, where we got to visit the Maternity Ward. There just so happened to be a brand new born baby (only one day old), whom was recovering with her mother. We learned today that in Nepali traditional, when there is a new born baby, for blessings and good wishes, one would tuck some folded money bills into the baby's bonnet! Normally right behind her ears. It was great to see mommy and baby doing so well!
Welcome to life little girl! You are blessed! <3
